Finally found my finishing mojo and now my Livingstone Cardigan is done! And found some yummy toggle buttons.
- Dr. Livingstone
- Pattern: Livingstone Cardigan (Ravelry) by Amy Miller from Interweave Knits, Winter 2011
- Yarn: 765 yards (700 m) of Novita Huopanen Lampola in colorway “Liinu” (026)
- Needles: 6.5 and 7.0 mm
Mods
- Worked all pieces seamlessly, joined the sleeves to body for the raglan decreases.
- Added a sort of waist-shaping by working on smaller needles for about 5 cm / 2 in around the waist.
- Picked up stitches for the front bands rather than sewing it on later. Added an extra (7th) wrapped stitch in the collar. Worked the front bands for 4 in (10 cm).
Feeling really great about this cardi but if I was to make it again, I would probably make the body a bit longer.
